Mr Tui


Mum was waiting  for her bus after work and was entertained by  this young Tui bird who was hopping around feasting on the flax flowers.   She took a video, but can't upload it as it is too big for blogger.  Such a delight - mum has never had one come so close to her.  In the last photo he sung mum a little Tui song, entertaining mum and other people  at the bus stop.
